So many of my followers who just graduated can’t get jobs; they’re hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt, and they don’t know what to do. My dream is to see a new generation of entrepreneurs who are creating and having more meaningful jobs than the day-to-day grind. Michelle Phan Read Quote
My production style is all about imagination. I want my audience to use their imagination when they watch my videos. My goal is for my voice to be that little hope of encouragement in your head when you walk out your door. Michelle Phan Read Quote

If I can find time to play games, it’s console gaming. I don’t want to be plugged into my phone all the time. I’m waiting for the new Mario Kart to come out, but I’ve been playing Donkey Kong and Mario 3D World on the Wii U. Michelle Phan Read Quote
I glance through the pages of all the top magazines every month just to see if there are any colors that are trending. I’ll also go on Instagram and look at the ‘popular’ page to see what people are liking, what’s cool. I’ll check it at different times of the day; for example, if it’s really late in L.A., you’ll see a lot of posts in Asia. Michelle Phan Read Quote
Flipboard is really fun because it’s like a digital magazine that lets you curate your favorite things and follow your favorite people. I do Instagram but not Vine. I love Vine, but I don’t have time to browse through it. So when I’m on YouTube, I’ll look up the ‘best of Vine’ compilations. Michelle Phan Read Quote
